I got it, took a year. if you want something done, do it yourself, revenge tastes good.

Peasant is not a bad thing. One can trundle along gaining skills and nobody really expects anything of you. The bad thing is remaining a peasant long after the âsell byâ date.

Well a peasant bounty hunter would only rely on possible isk payouts before deciding whether they want the contract!
If the payment is not to their satisfaction then no bounty would be sort after.
Perhaps itâs within their roleplay to pick and choose their targets.
I could be lookng at nothing here yet I am drawn to comment.
Itâs also not directed at the bounty hunter group lol

If frosty were become a bounty hunter he would follow his target around while waiting for the right moment to pounce!

Donât want to be bounty hunter, plenty of other fun things to do in EVE and revenge is a very destructive motivation.
No, I wouldnât mind having one as a pet though!

What about as a frozen corpse?
Incorrect. Firstly, the bounty system canât really be âabusedâ since it was all voluntary and discretionary. Second, CCP stated they were taking it offline âfor a timeâ due to excessive overhead created by bounty system during large-scale battles.
What current system?
Almost every mechanic in EVE is pushed to the limits/abused/exploited or otherwise used to maximize the players benefit. Thatâs what makes the game entertaining, interesting and worth exploring. If there was only one set of official âaccepted gameplay standardsâ and everybody played by them, EVE would have died of boredom years ago.
Abuse wasnât the issue, so youâre barking up the wrong tree again. However, even if it was âabusableâ in some fashion (as are most EVE mechanics), the question isnât âcan it be abused?â. The question is âdoes this system, including itsâ potential abuses and inefficiencies, add to the game and make it more fun and interesting to play?â.
The old bounty systems primary failure was that it was fairly useless, and didnât add much in the way of âinteresting gameplayâ (due to ganker mechanics, where gankers rarely have much at risk), and was inefficient. It had a few niche uses - such as putting bounties on friends or foes you wanted to keep a sort-of eye on, so youâd get a notification whenever they got popped somewhere. Or scaring and confusing new players - which some people called abuse and some people called âeducating new players about how EVE worksâ.
Having a bounty system tied to âpercent of value actually destroyedâ works fine and minimizes most dodges. Disabling the bounty system in Null and WH space (or just in large battles) takes care of inefficiency. If they canât have an overall system for it, then integrating a decent bounty/contract kill/mercenary project into Corp Projects is probably the next best way to do it.
The old system was âabusedâ because people would put bounties on people for legit bounty reasons and they would just use an alt to kill themselves and get the isk defeating the entire point of the system.
The new system is somewhat being âabusedâ for the same reason. They get a kill right with an alt and set some stupid isk amount thatâs still payable and just camp a station. Soon as someone activates it they dock and get the isk from the alt. This also sort of defeats the point of why the system was put in place.

Itâs not abuse.
You are just whining.
People, like me, put bounties on themselves to look badass.
Bounties are an indication you are doing Eve right. 
Well true, like back in the old days they would say you had not succeeded until you find your name inscribed into the outhouse wall!
